Cool...

This one goes out to all the small government, privacy loving, Republicans out there, supposedly hating invasive big brother tactics and representing the values of the American heartland.

Would be much appreciated if you could have a word with your people about this.

Follow Hong Kong tactics and use umbrellas to shield from above.

What's wrong is that officers of the law are allowed to lie like that, yet still want to be respected.

Yeah, it's frustrating. We need to end Qualified Immunity pronto.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

In lying's defense, they shouldn't be respected when they say that regardless of its truthiness

[–] mriswith@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Threatened? So they didn't ID them.

Green lasers. Everybody should have one.

[–] OhVenus_Baby@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Check comment above. This is a terrible idea. You'll go from 2 stars to 5.

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

They have sonic weapons. They run over people with horses and armored vehicles.

But they won't have copters to track you down and green lasers take out CCDs like nothing else. If they wanted to fly they shouldn't have weaponized the sky and flight.

This first thing you should do when going protesting, is to leave your phone at home.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 41 points 2 days ago (1 children)

and cover your face if you are in a shithole country like USA, Turkey, Russia etc

USA ... the world's richest third world country.

[–] UrPartnerInCrime@sh.itjust.works 88 points 2 days ago (1 children)

And cover up your face and any visible tattoos or any other identifying features

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Put a rock in your shoe too. Gait identification can be shockingly accurate.

What about walkie talkies? Short wave radios? Older tech comms devices?

What about open source open hardware anti-air missiles?

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 66 points 2 days ago (12 children)

sounds like a good reason to target any helicopters flying overhead with green lasers.

[–] bendovertherainbow@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 day ago

Someone I know is a military pilot. The green lasers were especially rough, because the light would get spread through the entire cockpit getting split up by the windshield, and even worse when he was flying with nightvision.

..... do with this information what you will.
